This evening I saw this headline - and it reminded me of a slice of Ohio football history.
Christian McCaffrey became the first player since 2005 to run, catch and throw a touchdown in the same game

Christian McCaffrey just did something only four other players have accomplished in modern NFL history.
The San Francisco 49ers running back ran, caught and passed for a touchdown against the Los Angeles Rams in Week 8.
Now, fellow Bobcats, let us recall this bit of Ohio football history. In 2000 Ohio running back Chad Brinker did the same thing for the Bobcats in a 23-17 win over Minnesota!
I remember listening to that game from my mother's hospital room in Columbus where she was recovering from adult respiratory distress syndrome, so I wasn't able to catch all the details of every play and those kind of stats. What I remember most was the end of the game where we got a few crucial 1st downs to run out the clock. I apologize to bobcatquared for revealing that I actually had a mother.
